[ tavros has a hell of a grin on his face. extra hell, given those spooky white eyes. everything is coming out so perfect. war aside, but that's actually not new. ]

Wow, I guess it's been a while since I actually, talked to anyone over this. As, I lost my shiny braclet somewhere, and then, found it again, except a lot of time had passed and, I remembered home. More of home such as unpleasant things, and, not so unpleasant things. Things that are, surprisingly pleasant, actually. Like my matesprit. Which, means girlfriend, for those of you who are not culturally aware.

[ So maybe he just kind of wants to brag a bit. He seems to falter for an actual topic to talk about. ]

I know that we are not going anywhere, except for the people who leave. But, I would actually like to say, that I missed all of you. When I remembered, to miss everyone. I hope that we are here for a while, and not sent home suddenly, so I just wanted to say that.

( as strange as it might sound to modern sensibilities, alayne has never had to work for anything in her life. it's the benefits that go along with being part of a noble house of westeros - she never knew how to want for things. she had every physical need laid out for her. but everything is different here. the name of stark holds no weight in this land, even if she no longer bears it for herself. and the last thing she wants is to burden robb with having to look after her financially, as well. robb, her brother. a title that she speaks to no one except herself, whispered quietly in the back of her mind. he is her brother, he is sansa's brother, but she cannot go back. she can only pretend to make concessions for his sake.

alayne is a bastard now, after all. not a noble girl. perhaps it is fitting that she seek work in this way. bastard girls and those of the lower classes worked all the time, and not always at unscrupulous occupations. she wants the money to purchase pretty things. she wants the freedom that comes from independence, in a sense. she wants to craft new alliances, should she ever need them in her time here. above all else, alayne looks to appear guileless.

there is a piece of cloth laid over her lap when the feed switches on, the stitchery delicate and exquisite. the needle and thread laid on top make it obvious that it's something she's been working on. )

To the citizens of Asgard,

My name is Alayne Stone. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance.

( and she nods her head in greeting instead of a curtsy because of her sitting position, and smiles. )

I am looking to inquire about seeking work. I am told it is customary here, and I wish not to put undue burden on the others that have supported me thus far. Although I am humble in my birth, I have some skill in needleworking and the mending of cloth. I can embroider a symbol or pattern in silk or yarn, if an image or description is given to me. Of dressmaking I have some knowledge in the westerosi style, though I fear that modern garments still escape my understanding.

( the camera tips down to get a better view of what she's embroidering - a pretty pattern of birds and flowers. this, she has done for no profit, only for want of something to do. )

I thank you for listening, Asgard.

[As always when Finnick makes a post, he's upbeat and very much energetic. Even for having fought with everyone and losing Annie at one point, he's already recovered. It was time to try and get things back to normal.]

Hey everyone, I know that we are all recovering but I have a couple of questions.

First. I'm looking for several different wedding gifts I can give my wife after we tie the knot here. Does anyone have any good suggestions? I want to make this even more special for her.

[Especially after all the violence...]

Second. I know we talked to a lot of people when I proposed to Annie again about several different things we needed for the ceremony and party. I need to touch base with everyone, and we decided that Mid February is about the time we want things to happen.

Last, I think it's time to go out for the night? Who wants to go?
